Default What should I buy D50 or Canon 350D

I have been thinking of buying DSLR for some time now. I have narrowed down
my search to two SLR that I like.
The Nikon D50 and the Canon 350D.
Which do you think I should go for and why?
What do you like or dislike about the camera, if you are a user?


You go for the one that feels better when you take pictures with it.
Really. Which one has a grip that feels better, which one feels more
stable when you take a picture, which one you could stand to walk
around with it in your hand all day.

They are otherwise nearly identical. Personally, I would go for the
Nikon. Not only does it feel better to me, but it has better lenses
available for it and I think the buttons and menus are better laid out.

My daughter, OTOH, went for the Canon. For the same reasons that I like
the Nikon.
